    We'd have plenty of water to work with if we just used a Fremen deathstill on California -- heck, LA alone would give us plenty of water for agriculture, water sports on our reservoirs, etc.


    EDIT: Only problem is that I don't want anything to do with a water bond with anyone in California.

    I guess when you have a 'no-water' hammer, everything looks like a nail.

    At 1.1 gallons of water per almond produced, I'd say they are a huge problem for CA's water supply as well.

    Pot revenues should be spent on unicorn feed and rainbow generators only, dammit.

    Yum. Imagine the unicorn steaks we could get out of this arrangement.

    I wish technology solved people issues. It seems to just reveal them.
